Introduction

4.

Open the Compilation Report panel by clicking on Compilation
Report

under the Processing menu. If the Compilation Report

panel is open, you have to close it and reopen it.

The dtw_timing_analysis.tcl script appends its result onto the
Compilation Report, and is automatically displayed after refreshing
the Compilation Report panel.

The dtw_timing_analysis.tcl Script Results

The script result is added at the bottom of the compilation result as
Memory Interface Timing

with the name of the controller and .dwz file

in parentheses under that folder, and shows the script result with my_core
(ddr_settings.dwz), because the controller’s name is my_core and the
.dwz

file name used to constrain the memory interface timing is called

ddr_settings.dwz

, as shown in

Figure 3–2

.

-stop_after

<value>

Any integer

Indicates the maximum number of
iterations when using the

-auto_adjust_cycles

switch to

prevent infinite iterations. The default
value is 5.

No

-vwf_file_name

<value>

A .vwf file name

Creates a waveform showing the
interface timing margin in a .vwf
format.

No

-write_side

tanrpt

tq

skip

auto

Tells the script whether you want to
use Classic or TimeQuest Timing
Analyzer for the write side timing
analysis. You also have the option to
skip write timing analysis. The default
is TimeQuest Timing Analyzer,
regardless of what timing analyzer
was used in the design. Classic timing
analyzer is not recommended for write
timing analysis.

No

Notes to

Table 3–1

:

(1)

Fedback clock in this implementation is used for read capture, not for resynchronization.

(2)

RLDRAM II and QDRII+/QDRII SRAM interfaces do not require resynchronization clocks, as the Altera IP MegaCore
functions use a FIFO to resynchronize data to system clock.
